I've coordinated/hosted 3 or 4 Throwdowns here in the Seattle/Tacoma area. I never had anyone sign a waiver (that I remember). I figured that the huge number of witnesses to cooperative training/sparring would ultimately be sufficient to douse any dickwad's hopes of litigation as a form of revenge for sucking.

Maybe it's just all the ribs and brisket I ate for dinner making me overly aggressive, but I'm planning on organizing another Throwdown, likely in February sometime, and I'm going to have to see what good this grapping **** I've learned will do me... I hope I can just hammer fuckers down like Chuck, but I suspect, somehow, that I suck waaay too much for that to be a valid option...

I thought people became ex-ninjers when they realised that being a ninjer means they have no skills. Aside from 13 levels in Cult Follower. Is that what you're proposing, that all the ex-ninjers mix up batches of Kool-Aid?

They have no RING FIGHTING skill (except Plazma who is clearly teh deadly inside and outside the ring). Their cleverness within the realm of becoming one with the shadows, jumping into trees, sneaking, shuriken throwing, more sneaking, and causing the silent death of their prey is superb however.
